I see you have a 4.3 diff. Switch to a 3.73 as well as fixing any WG and compressor housing leaks/issues, spool time will improve quite a bit.

^I attempted messing with the relay only on my early 89. Gave the same results as the op. Probably because I'm using an '88 wiring diagram lol (obviously i did not use it verbatim). I do know it worked well on my '88, simply switch when the relay is turned on and it yielded desired results, plus...

Two things come to mind. One, there is a adjustment pin for the clutch pedal, it may have come out of proper placement. Second, worn clutch, prepare yourself if this is the case. Just replaced mine last weekend, not fun. Though I must say I recommend an ACT setup, I'm using their Xtreme w/6 puck...

yea, and does this "tester" have issues with the previous model??? if not, why should i trust this one? One of the key reasons I should have been a tester......

There is no obvious way to tell a fake from the real thing short of completely disassembling it.

SEX, wish i had a spare few million laying around.

Im calling a fake, its not THAT huge of a deal for that much snow, especially in that area.

They've had the prototype in hand for months. I've been dealing with Pat since the beginning of the redesign back in July, and even offered to help with testing to speed the process. However i refused their testing. Basically, testing procedures require you bring your car to their facility in...

^yes but you'd have to machine the ENTIRE surface, not just the contact surface of the PP, based off info from other sources I believe this is where the problem may be. Im sure it can be done, probably just not cost effective to machinists, idk.

^nearly all aftermarket PP's utilize a stock PP and upgrade it from there.

^not really "custom"

^its a possibility. I think its more of a combination than anything of several factors, motor mounts being just one. IIRC someone had this issue even with solid mounts.

no updates, ive had a hell of a time getting a hold of pat lately. Still working on it slowly, but hasn't been forgotten. When I know, you will all know.

link to said headgasket?

We just gave you your solution. No need to explain further looking for alternatives. Fix the problem you know about and if it persists, then make another post. Good luck. AFM's are fairly easy to come by.

new AFM time.

264's are a mild cam, shouldn't cause much of an idle issue compared to its larger counterparts, 272's 284's etc. I would think your issue lies elsewhere. Start with codes.

Personally, I see a huge thing wrong with this. Glad it worked out for you, but from experience just with 22 and 18, the maturity gap in that age category is astronomical. 39 and 31 may be one thing but 25 and 17 just seems like a nightmare to myself short of an occasional hookup.

Im not here to argue. He can choose. "Half assing" it or not, there are plenty of things to shortcut we all do, what makes this one so much better or worse. Ive personally both removed the turbo and oil lines with the turbo on, engine installed, and know what's easier. You're right the gasket...

I wish i could but its simply unheard of to machine a PP. Talk to a machine shop and they will basically laugh at you. I agree with you though, I think they should be able to machine a PP, but as far as I'm aware it seems to be out of the question. And I agree its proper to have flat surfaces...
